Indentation level setting (different from tab size)

David Capello 12 years ago updated by User______ 7 years ago 10
Add some options to specify the indentation level (which is different from tab_size):
  • indentation_size/indent_level (integer): number of spaces to use to indent code, which is not the same as "tab_size"
  • compress_spaces_with_tabs_on_indentation (boolean): to specify that spaces should be converted to tabs when you reach a certain level of indentation (e.g. 8 spaces compressed to 1 tab if tab_size=8)

Sidebar icons and fitt's law

Richard Hurt 13 years ago updated by Jamie Webb 13 years ago 2
Opening a folder in the sidebar is fairly tedious and requires you to click in just the right place. Making the triangles bigger or allowing the filename to be a target would help quite a bit. Keyboard commands to open/close folders would be handy as well.

Tidy code formatting

Daniel Blanchard 13 years ago updated by Brian Grinter 12 years ago 3
One thing that I really miss from TextMate (and a lot of other editors) is the ability to tidy up code so that it all corresponds to a standard format.

For example, I currently have some really terribly formatted HTML I'd like to be able to have automatically indented and broken up into lines like HTMLTidy, and it'd be nice if it was possible to do that from inside ST2.

Patrick Thurmond 12 years ago updated by Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami 10 years ago 3
Sublime could really use an ftp/sftp explorer to remotely edit files.

Update the python embedded interpreter to 2.7

Norman Casagrande 12 years ago updated 12 years ago 0
SublimeText should upgrade the python embedded interpreter to 2.7.

Since popular plugins such as SublimeLinter relies on the embedded interpreter, they cannot handle syntax that has been introduced in 2.7 such as set comprehensions. 

See https://github.com/Kronuz/SublimeLinter/issues/13 for instance.

Improve Open Recent on OS X

aristidesfl 13 years ago updated by Reinout Roels 11 years ago 15
Open Recent doesn't work as expected and doesn't integrate well with the system.

Somethings don't work as expected, others are broken and it doesn't look the same. Here is a screenshot from TextMate:

Some of the issues I find, besides the looks, are:

- Every file appears in the list. Even files opened thru the sidebar or go to file palete. This is not desirable. Only opened folders and files which don't belong to any of the folders in the sidebar should be in that list.

- The list isn't accessible by other applications. People using Quicksilver or Launchbar can't open directly recent files/folders 


Without knowing anything from Sublime Text 2 implementation, I risk to say, using the default OS X API's to provide this functionality would probably fix these issues.

Autohide Sidebar

Austin Condiff 13 years ago 0
You can currently Hide or Show the sidebar, but it would be nice to set it to autohide so that when you mouse over the left side, the sidebar will slide in. Then when you mouse off of it, it will slide back so it is hidden again.
